You say you read the topic here in 2008, correct? Because after a few minutes of searching I found absolutely nothing. You sure it was here? Are you sure it wasn't just a speculation thread about Kid Icarus?

I downloaded a test they did on the platforming aspect of it. It was actually fairly decent. But there were no monsters and no end to the level. It also only had the graphics and style of the nes version, so like someone said, you'd be better off playing it on an nes emulator. Now, it you want like a 2d 16 or 32 bit more advanced version, I'd advise you pull some people together to do it (meaning you get ppl who know how to code and you just like give them how u want it to look and basically "direct" the project.) I may be able to form a test run for a sidescrolling version of kid Icarus, so if I do I'll make a new thread and make it downloadable for you guys.
